A pressure sensor, located on the O
PCA (see Figure 3-6), monitors the output gas pressure of the regulator on the O
generator's zero air supply. The regulator is adjusted at the factory to maintain a
pressure of 20 PSIG on this line. If the pressure drops below 15 PSIG or rises above 25
PSIG a warning is issued.
The Model T700 calibrator's optional photometer determines the concentration of
Ozone (O
) in a sample gas drawn through it. Sample and calibration gases must be
3
supplied at ambient atmospheric pressure in order to establish a stable gas flow through
the absorption tube where the gas' ability to absorb ultraviolet (UV) radiation of a
certain wavelength (in this case 254 nm) is measured.
Gas bearing O
and zero air are alternately routed through the photometer's absorption
3
tube. Measurements of the UV light passing through the sample gas with and without
O
present are made and recorded.

Calibration of the photometer is performed in software and does not require physical
adjustment. During calibration, the CPU's microprocessor measures the current state of
the UV Sensor output and various other physical parameters of the calibrator and stores
them in memory. The CPU uses these calibration values, the UV absorption
